Democrats' Future: What the 2024 Loss Means for Kamala Harris

Washington, DC, California, USAFriday, December 20, 2024

The 2024 election left the Democrats reflecting on their future, especially when it comes to Vice President Kamala Harris. Rumors are swirling about Harris considering another run in 2028 or even becoming California's governor in 2026. While early polls show her leading the pack, the reality is, the party has not re-nominated a losing candidate since 1956. After the 1968 reforms, no losing candidate has even tried to rejoin the race.

Harris' campaign had its ups and downs, from tax credit focus to controversial allies like Liz Cheney. Despite her late surge in popularity, many believe Harris isn't the best choice for 2028. The only exception was Al Gore in 2004, who had unique circumstances. Harris might face a quick end to her speculations if primary voters have their way. They want change and aren't looking back.
